County lags most in
number of abortions
Population, age of
Kansas localities
reflected in statistics

Abby Kelly of Garnett holds on for dear life during the Mutton Bustin
competition Saturday during the opening moments of the
Midwest Mayhem Bull Riding competition at the Anderson County
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 9-19-2017 / DANE HICKS
Fairgounds. The event was the final one in the 2017 entertainment
lineup for the annual fair, sponsored by the Anderson County Fair
Association.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Anderson County
continues to rank toward the
very bottom of Kansas 105
counties in the annual number of abortions performed
on resident women, according to an annual abortion
report released by the Kansas
Department of Health and
Environment.
Abortions in Kansas,
2016 listed Anderson County
with only 2 abortions in 2016.
The same report showed 3
procedures the previous year
in 2015. Altogether in 2016,
16 counties saw no abortions
performed on women who
reside in those counties; 14
counties had a single abortion
last year and 19 had two.
The statistics reflect not
just the higher number of
procedures in more populous
areas, but also the skew of
rural counties toward more
elderly populations. Johnson
County had the highest abortion count in the state in 2016
at 846, with a median age of
37.4, and .0014 abortions per
thousand population in 2016.
By comparison Anderson
Countys median age is 41.7,
with .0002 abortions per thousand last year.
An unrelated report from
last week also released by
KDHE showed the state had
maintained its 2015 ranking
with its lowest-ever recorded
incidence of infant mortality.
We are excited to report
that we had the lowest ever
recorded infant mortality rate
in the history of the state in

City manager: Software woes stymie city sales tax Hurricane scammers
skip this area so far
Problem makes city
sales tax payments to
Kansas late for months
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City manager
Chris Weiner told city commissioners last week city staff had
managed to catch up on late
payments of sales tax to the
Kansas Department of Revenue
in recent weeks, but that bugs
in new computer software the
city transitioned to earlier this
year continued to be felt in various city departments.
Weiner said the city had
been late on virtually all of its
sales tax payments since the
change was made early in 2017,
and that the problems extended to other city departments
and operations as well. The
city collects sales tax primarily
on utility payments which are
collected from electric, water,
gas and trash customers in the
citys service area each month.
We have been late on all
of our sales tax payments to
the state, Weiner said in his
report to commissioners at
Tuesdays city commission
meeting. We are now caught
up and are working to resolve
the software issues, but we
should not be late again with
our payments.
In other business from
Tuesdays meeting:
commissioners proclaimed
September 15 as National
Prisoner of War/Missing in
Action recognition day in
Garnett;
appointed Weiner to a position on the KMEA board of
directors.
established a number
of new funds within the citys
budget in keeping with the
present state property tax lid;
approved a cereal malt
beverage special event permit for the Anderson County
Corn Festival for the upcoming
Cornstock concert on the hill;
approved outdoor event
liquor sales permits and
barricaded streets in downtown Garnett for the areas of
Maloans Bar & Grille (4th &
Oak) and Trade Winds Bar &
Grill (West 5th) for outdoor
party events on Sept. 23 and
Oct. 14;
signed an agreement for
the use of city facilities with
the local Big Brothers Big
Sisters chapter for a Cornhole
Tournament;
approved monthly payments in the amount of
$692,318.81.
discussed a change in planning in which Weiner re-ordered a previous plan for
hard surfacing repair of some
local roads with a half inch
shell coat of asphalt. Weiner
answered questions from commissioner Greg Gwin regarding the change up, saying he
viewed a half-inch top coat as a
waste of recources which could
be used for lasting repairs to
fewer streets, considering the
heavy traffic particularly in
the area of the ethanol plant.

Garnett law officers so far
havent had any reports of
suspected scam fundraising
calls in the local area connected to hurricanes Irma
or Harvey, but experts say
phone and email solicitations
are still the preferred method for these hoax donation
seekers.
Garnett Police Chief Kurt
King said last week so far hes
had no local reports of the
scam callers who have been
reported in other parts of the
country.
Im not aware of any,
King said, but If we have, it
has only been very limited or
I would have been notified.
Those calls typically
approach elderly persons
who are more sympathetic to
heart strings-type cons, but
more sophisticated crooks
have been trying to tap small
businesses via their email
accounts, often using existing company logos and even
vendor identification to get a
response from unsuspecting
companies email accounts.

A place for those not yet returned New plan
Legion/VFW ceremony
pays homage to service
men & women still not home
BY CHELSEY DALBINI
SPECIAL TO THE ANDERSON COUNTY
GARNETT American Legion Historian
Chelsey DAlbini prepared the following piece on the POW/MIA Ceremony
which was conducted Friday night at the
Garnett American Legion Post.
Years ago, my grandfather asked me
to be a part of POW/MIA night because
it was a cause that was very important
to him.
I was supposed to help him cook
a meal for that night and he secretly
wanted my lasagna recipe. Which he
knows is not written down and therefore I would have to be there to cook it,
I think it was a veiled proposition to get
him out of cooking the meal entirely.
That night I watched the candle ceremony and listened to the speaker with
a newfound respect for the program.
Listening to the roll call of the missing, seeing the candles lit on the table,
and the profound silence in the room
changed how I felt that night. I had
always known what POW/MIA meant,
but over the course of the last 10 years
its become something that is very near
and dear to my heart as well.
The Defense POW/MIA Accounting
Agency was formed in January 2015
as a result of the merger of the Joint
POW/MIA Accounting Command,
the Defense Prisoner of War/Missing
Personnel Office and part of the Air
Forces Life Sciences Lab. Their mission is to recover missing personnel
who are listed as POW/MIA from all
past wars and conflicts and from countries around the world.
There are still approximately 79,000
unaccounted for from WWII. This
number can be a bit misleading as it
includes those buried with honor as
unknowns, officially buried at sea, lost
at sea and missing in action.
Six men from Garnett that fit that
description. Eldro Thompson (for
whom the American Legion is named)
was lost with the USS Houston; Gene
Sheern and John Shinkle were lost with
the USS Mount Hood explosion; Billy
Bronston was an airman shot down
somewhere over Germany; Herbert
Yerkes was an airman lost over Italy
and Edwin Peine was a sailor and listed
on the Tablets of the Missing in Manila,
Philippines. More than 73,000 remain
unaccounted for from that war and are
actively listed as missing.
At the close of World War II,
American dead lay scattered across the
globe. American Military men were
buried where they fell, some at sea
and many more in temporary cemeteries. In 1945, the Return of the World
War II Dead Program was formed to
locate previously overlooked crash
sites, explore battlefields for isolated
or poorly marked graves and disinter temporary military graveyards for
identification and repatriation. The US
Army was tasked with the American
Graves Registration Service to perform
the task of identification of the sites.
County creates new
health savings plan
option for employees
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 9-19-2017 / KEVIN GAINES
The ceremonial table sits unattended as post official Clarence Hermann and special guest Brig General Jay Selanders prepare for the evenings events.
Once the location was achieved, the
remains were disinterred and sent to
the Central Identification Laboratories,
where technicians were able to identify over 280,000 missing personnel.
These men worked until all leads were
exhausted from 1945-1951.
After the close of the program, the
US Army Mortuary System continued
to identify smaller amounts of missing
personnel. From 1951 to 1976, they were
able to identify an additional 200 service members. After 1976, the identifi-
cation of missing personnel fell largely
on the Central Identification Lab in
Hawaii. From then until 2003, that
organization used anthropologists and
odonatologists to identify 346 individuals. That means before 2003, the organizations responsible for the repatriation
of American Heroes were responsible
for identifying more than 280,546 personnel without the use of DNA testing.
In 2003, 58 years after the end of

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Anderson County
Commissioners have taken the
first step toward establishing
a health savings account for
county employees in an effort
to cushion rising health insurance costs.
Commissioners
authorized the opening of a business checking account at a
local bank recently which will
serve as a repository of funds
for the countys Health Savings
Account, a new offering this
year for employees on the
countys health insurance.
Health Savings Accounts
are tax-advantaged medical
expense savings accounts that
allow members who are in a
high-deductible health insurance plan to contribute to their
own accounts without that
money being subject to federal
income tax. The funds can be
used to pay for qualified medical expenses.
County clerk Julie Heck
said the county would also
match a portion of the HSA
contribution for participating
employees. The plans are also
portable should a staffer leave
county employment.

Blome announced yesterday the
auction date for Mont Ida School
building will need to be postponed to a later date. October
9, 2017, was the original auction

ABORTIONS….
FROM PAGE 1
2015 and we have maintained
that rate again in 2016, said
KDHE Secretary Mosier, MD,
MBA, FACS.
The state recorded 223 resident infant deaths in 2016, the
lowest number ever recorded. The infant mortality rate
for the state was 5.9 infants
per 1,000 live births. This was
unchanged from the 2015 infant
mortality rate. A decline in the
number of births to Kansas resident women was responsible
for the unchanged rate. Kansas
recorded 38,048 resident births,
a 2.8 percent decrease from the
39,126 births in 2015.
The long term trends for
White non-Hispanic and Black
non-Hispanic infant mortality
rates show a decline. The Black
non-Hispanic infant mortality rate in 2016 was 15.2 infant
deaths per 1,000 live births,
almost three times higher
(2.9) than the White non-Hispanic infant mortality rate of
5.2. The infant mortality rate
for Hispanic origin was 5.1 per
1,000 live births.

ROCKERS
OCTOBER 24, 1991 – SEPTEMBER 7, 2017
William C. Rockers (Bill) 25,
Kansas City, Missouri, died on
Thursday, September 7, 2017
at Kansas City Hospice. Bill
was a First Lieutenant in the
United States Air Force and

University in 2014, and before
he reported to his first assignment with the Air Force, Bill
flew to Istanbul with his bicycle, toured Turkey and then
biked from Vienna, Austria
to Dresden, Germany. Even
during his final illness, he
enjoyed spending time and
traveling with his girlfriend
Samantha Sharma and shooting pool and hanging out with
his two best friends, Sean
Morris and Brett Morris.
Bill loved to travel, hunt big
game in the mountains of New
Mexico, brew beer, and to work
with wood. He spoke German
and Turkish, and his calm
demeanor, even in the face of
adversity, was an inspiration
to all he touched, including his
parents. He was fearless in the
face of different experiences
and new adventures.

father, Christopher Rockers,
his step-mother Kim Rockers,
sisters Abby (Raymond) Solis,
Ellen Rockers, Chelsea Leaver,

grandmothers, Eileen Loney
and Joan Rockers, and many
aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews

a part of a large family and a
huge group of friends.
Bill was preceded in death
by his mother, Judith Rockers
and his grandfathers, Mark
Rockers and Robert Loney.

This is the road the prodigal
son took in the gospel of Luke
chapter 15. The prodigal son
abandons the high road of spiritual living and ventures onto
the common way where he ends
up with an empty purse, an
empty stomach and a starving
soul. When he returns home he
finds that even though he abandon the Father his Father never
abandoned him. Jesus makes a
statement made for those of us
who have found ourselves in
the prodigal shoes. Jesus says,
Come to me, all you who are
weary and burdened, and I will
give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)

way we find the high road of

TOPEKA, Kan. Governor
Brownback on Thursday
authorized state agencies to
grant a 2.5 percent raise to any
unclassified employee in the
Executive Branch who was
left out of the Legislatures pay
plan.
The decision comes after
consultation with members of
the Governors Cabinet, the
Director of the Budget, and
state employees. The Governor
does not have the legal authority to extend raises to only those
classified employees who did
not receive an increase from
the Legislature, only further
legislative action could do
that. Therefore, the raise only
applies to unclassified workers
who fell through the pay plan
criteria established by the legislature.
This effort furthers the
Governors commitment to
rewarding employees for their
performance and trust in their
employer, said Secretary
of Administration Sarah
Shipman said. The administration is currently looking at
the agency budgets for Fiscal
Year 2019 to determine how
inequities and salary compression can be further addressed.
We look forward to working
with the 2018 Legislature to further address this situation.
The pay increases will uti-
lize existing agency funds and
take effect the pay period that
starts Sunday, September 24th.
While most large agencies
will utilize existing funds to
allocate the raise via paychecks
on an ongoing basis, some agencies will use one-time funds to
give a bonus equivalent to the
2.5 percent increase.
Additional information will
be provided to employees by
agencies, including opportunities for classified employees to
receive a pay increase by voluntarily accepting an unclassified position.

OPINION
Identity fraud, protected by
the Kansas Supreme Court
If you liked the way the Kansas Supreme
Court overturned the Wichita Carr brothers
mass murder convictions; if you liked the way
the court arrogantly threatened to close Kansas
local schools over the courts insatiable desire
for more and more of your tax money; if you
liked the touchy-feely partisan connections
between Justice Carol Beier and Democrat political candidates youll love the wacky courts
latest ruling.
Drum roll: illegal aliens who stole social security numbers and used them to falsify I-9 federal
work-status forms and numerous other state tax
and employment documents cant be prosecuted
by state or local authorities in Kansas because
that would be stepping on the federal governments toes.
In
other
words, because
a criminal stole
your social security number and
falsified federal
immigrant work
papers with it,
the very law
that proscribes
how to deal
with employers
who knowingly hire illegal
immigrants prevents those very
immigrants from
being prosecuted
for identity theft.
At least in
Kansas… where logic so often disconnects itself
from the state high courts judicial witching
stick. But not in Iowa, however, where the Iowa
Supreme Court decided a similar case in exactly
the opposite fashion. Go figure.
The case in question involved three illegals
living in Johnson County and working at three
different establishments, who used stolen SSNs
to get their jobs. They were all three convicted
in Johnson County District Court of identity theft, and that decision was upheld in the
Kansas Court of Appeals. But the KSC, as it has
made a practice of doing, was anxious to find
a way to throw a wrench in the works of other
courts and of basic justice to repeal previous

decisions that made sense.
The vote on the court was 5-2 at least justices Dan Biles and Caleb Stegall showed a modicum of logic.
Never mind the disaster that can befall a victim whose SSN has been stolen. It is a problem
that cant be fixed theres no canceling a SSN
and getting a new one. Its one number for the
rest of your life, tied to your every financial
transaction past, present or future, and most
other aspects of your life as well. If someone else
is also using your number and paying into the
SSI system, the system actually loves it and asks
no questions. The IRS only discovers and notifies about half the estimated annual 1.4 million
victims of SSN theft that there may be a problem. Otherwise people simply never know their
SSN was compromised, until theyre audited
and IRS records show they have more earnings
than their own records ever show.
In its decision, the Kansas Supreme Court
made itself an accessory to a burgeoning criminal industry in the country the theft, resale and
reuse of legitimate Social Security Numbers.
It is big business, generates big money for
the organized crime honchos that run it and
provides a smokescreen of identity by which
illegal immigrants milk our system. As Kansas
Secretary of State Kris Kobach duly noted, the
state supreme court decision denying prosecution of this type of identity theft helps Kansas
become the sanctuary state of the Midwest.
In Kansas, justice awaits the next opportunity to non-retain most of the state supreme court.
It cant come soon enough.

Trump undermines himself with TV obssession
Donald Trump is the first president in U.S.
history to have been baited into undermining
his own negotiating position by negative TV
coverage.
Less than 12 hours after Attorney General
Jeff Sessions explained that the administration is ending DACA — Deferred Action for
Childhood Arrivals — because its unconstitutional, Trump tweeted that he might revive
the program if Congress doesnt act.
This was an implicit admission that hes
bluffing on DACA, which gives Democrats
every incentive not to trade anything meaningful for a codification of the program. Why
make any painful concessions to save DACA if
the president is loath to truly terminate it?
Surely, Trump wasnt thinking of any
strategic or legislative imperatives; he was
thinking only of how to push back against
commentators calling him heartless. The time
of the tweet — 8:38 p.m. — suggests that he was
watching TV, and reporting has confirmed as
much.
Which raises the questions: Doesnt the
president have better things to do than watch
political punditry on cable TV shows? As one
of the most famous and powerful people on
the planet, why does he care what pundits say
about him? And doesnt he realize that his
immigration agenda will get attacked by most
commentators no matter what?
President Barack Obama famously
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
described himself as having a pen and a phone
(thats how we got DACA). Trump has a phone
and a remote control, and often works them in
tandem as he criticizes, praises and comments
on things said about him on air.
Trump is the most unusual combination of
a politician who, on the one hand, was elected president by thumbing his nose at media
elites and, on the other, is obsessed about what
media elites write and say about him.
Trump is experiencing the agony of the
media-bashing media figure. He follows whats
said on cable TV more closely than many people who make a living as commentators on
cable TV. He sometimes knows more about the
industry gossip than people who work in the
industry.
This reflects his background as a TV star
who leveraged his fame into the presidency.
But it is, needless to say, highly unusual.
George W. Bush didnt pay much attention
to his press coverage, confident that history
would get it right and unwilling to get diverted from doing more important things. Barack
Obama had an Olympian disregard for political punditry (as for many things).
Trump clearly feeds off the attention and
considers the negative coverage, in part, as
a motivator (Ill show those bastards on CNN
…). But his obsession with the coverage also
distorts his judgment. The DACA tweet was an
unforced error, or, to be more precise, an error
forced by cable chatter he should be ignoring.
There are a couple of ways out of the dilemma.
Trump can abandon his program and perhaps
get some praise for growing in office (while
destroying his presidency). He can continue,
agitated by the coverage, to lash out, sometimes self-defeatingly. Or he can turn off the
TV.
The right answer is Click!, but hes as
unlikely to give up the remote as he is his
phone.

Symbols, contradictions & puzzlements on race
Many older Southerners, this one included,
moved past the mythology and contrived mystique of the Confederacy a long time ago.
That advance was not automatic for kids
growing up in North Carolina in the 1940s
when blacks and whites lived in separate universes connected only by the bus routes that
delivered black maids, nannies and yard men
to and from white homes.
Change was incremental because the
races did not talk to
each other about the
curtain that separated them. For the most
part, whites werent
interested in starting such a discussion
and for the most part
blacks were afraid to
start it.
But change was in
the air. World War II
had something to do
with it, I think, bringing into our formative
years the ideas of a wider world beyond the
insulated Old South, including the discovery that blacks and whites, even in separate
units, could fight effectively against a common threat.
For youngsters, life in 1940s Dixie was full
of contradictions and puzzlements.
–In some families, mine included, what has
now become the N word was banned. While
I walked to the nearby drug store with an
aunt, we passed a uniformed maid at a bus
stop. A polite and soft-spoken Duke University
librarian, my aunt was commenting that I was

–In my all-white school our sixth grade
music teacher pushed the anti-slavery if racistly ambiguous 19th Century songs of Stephen
Collins Foster, complete with the darkie
dialect that Foster contrived. She also touted the work of the United Daughters of the
Confederacy (UDC), urging that we interest
our mothers in its project of filling public
spaces with statues of Confederate heroes
such as Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis,
lest we forget.
Our current national debate over the propriety of displaying those hundreds of symbols is itself full of contradictions and puzzlements.
Even Silent Sam, a statue of an anonymous young confederate soldier standing
prominently next to the Franklin Street
entrance to the University of North Carolina
(courtesy of the UDC) is under threat. For
many Tar Heel undergraduates of the postWWII era, Sam didnt symbolize nostalgia for
past conflict; the controlling narrative and
standing joke was that every time a virgin
walked by, Silent Sam fired his rifle. Now
the statue is again taken as symbolic of something beyond undergraduate frivolity, and
UNC is under pressure to remove it.
Symbols are easier to destroy thanand
should not be mistaken fortheir underlying
truths. Destroying them is a poor, if sometimes temporarily satisfying, substitute for
doing the real work of repairing the fractures
in our social structure that they represent.
And theres fracturing to make up for on all
sides. Think John Brown, whose ten-foot high
figure dominates John Steuart Currys 33-foot
mural that itself dominates the Kansas State
Capitol rotunda.
Brown, Bible in his left hand, rifle in the
his right, stands astride the bodies of two men.
By todays standards, his raids and murders
in the name of abolition would easily qualify
as terrorism. He was hanged for leading a
bloody raid on the Harpers Ferry, Va., federal
armory, having been captured by a company

I love to eat. Like millions
of fellow Americans theres
nothing better than food grown

farms and ranches.
Ill eat a thick, choice rib-eye

Make sure it has all the fixings baked potatoes, steamed

and a chilled gin martini.
I also like a home-cooked
omelet with my Sunday morning paper. You know the kind,
three eggs filled with sauted
mushrooms, diced red peppers
and onions, cheddar cheese,
wheat toast with a couple strips
of bacon on the side and a tall
glass of cold milk.
And dessert, who doesnt

stomach hearing about the
many ways our Kansas and
American farmers and ranchers are scrutinized today. Still,
every year we expect farmers
and ranchers to grow more and
more food with less land. Every
INSIGHT
JOHN SCHLAGECK, Kansas Farm Bureau
year they do so.
Attacks and smear tactics originate from all sides.
Environmental groups, animal
welfare activists, everyone
seems to have their own agenda
and the media just cant seem
to tell the whole tale.
Thats the reason we in agriculture must tell our story.
Consumers are people and people forget.
They forget our farmers
and livestock producers make
sure we eat the healthiest, most
affordable food on the planet.
These producers also take care
of their livestock because its
the right thing to do. It is part of
a farmer and ranchers values
that embody everything they
do.
And what about the Human
Society of the United States
(HSUS) and People for the
Ethical Treatment of Animals
(PETA) who contend theyre
leading the charge to step up
for animal welfare.
In case you havent heard,
HSUS has one goal and one goal
only the total elimination of
all animal agriculture in this
country. Go to their website
and check it out. HSUS wants
to remove meat, milk and eggs
from the human diet, yours and
mine.
Most Americans have never
lived or worked on a farm. Still
they retain nostalgic visions
of their grandparents or
great-grandparents farms.
You know the story where
these farmers and ranchers of
old grew their own vegetables,
milked a few cows, raised pigs
for bacon, ham and pork chops
and cared for a couple dozen
chickens who laid eggs in an
old white wooden chicken coop.
Like a lot of things from the
past, nostalgia might appear to
be better than it really was.
Many of our grandparents were
barely able to eke out a living
while raising a large family.
The days of yesteryear on
the farm took a lot of hard work
from sunup to sundown. Many
still went hungry or broke and
times were lean.
Todays animal husbandry,
or care and feeding of livestock,
is no accident. Rather, its
because of the dedicated men,
women and children who raise
and care for this states livestock. For generations, Kansas
farmers and ranchers have
watched over and nurtured cattle, hogs, sheep, chickens and
other livestock each and every
day.
The more comfortable these
animal producers make their
animals, the more productive
theyre going to be and the better opportunity theyll have to
make a profit.
The health and welfare of
livestock trumps everything
else on the farm, even a producers own comfort. Thats been
the recipe for success for near-
National Farm
Safety and
Health Week
ly 150 years and with any luck
itll be the same for another 150
years.
Oh, did I mention?
Ill be grilling a thick, juicy
ribeye tonight medium rare.

POW/MIA…
FROM PAGE 1
triation of American Heroes
were responsible for identifying more than 280,546 personnel without the use of DNA
testing.
In 2003, 58 years after the end
of WWII, the Defense Prisoner
Of War Missing Personnel
office began to develop a comprehensive database of WWII
service
members
whose
remains were not recovered or
identified after the war. Their
primary responsibility was to
answer questions from family
members about missing personnel until early 2010 and the
passage of the National Defense
Authorization Act. In late 2014
the Secretary of Defense directed that it be merged into the
Defense POW/MIA Account
Agency and reached full capability for identifications in
January 2016.
The quest to recover and
identify missing personnel
has been a long and arduous
process. Some 13,000 men and
women in uniform around the
world are a part of this still
today. In 2017 alone, the DPAA
has identified and returned
over 140 personnel from WWII,
Korea and Viet Nam.
On the third Friday in
September we recognize
and observe POW/MIA Day.
Its a day to take pause and
remember Prisoners of War
like Lawrence Selanders and
Wendell Thompson. Its a day
to remember those who didnt
come home and were either lost
at sea, or never recovered like
Wendells little brother Eldro,
Edwin Peine, Billy Bronston,
Herbert Yerkes, Gene Sheern
and John Shinkle. POW/MIA
Day is more than just a day to
remember. Its a day to support the continued efforts of the
DPAA in their quest to locate
and identify all the missing.
Our ceremonial remembrance of POW/MIAs is stirring.
In every American Legion,
VFW, 40/8 Voiture, and the
branch organizations, there is
the black flag. There is the
table. The table is a sacred
place inside any meeting or
hall. It has many names. The
Missing Man table. The POW
Table. The MIA Table. The
Missing Table. It is revered
and it is deeply respected.
Each piece in the table display
is profoundly meaningful. It
moves entire rooms to tears
during ceremonies across the
nation because it represents
someone from that community that didnt come home and
still hasnt been identified. The
table that stands before you is
a place of honor. In setting this
table, we acknowledge those
missing from our celebration
today. And we remember them.
(ring bell)
The table is small, and set
for one — Symbolizing the vulnerability of a lone prisoner
against his captors. Remember!
(ring bell)
The tablecloth is white -Symbolizing purity of intention
in responding to the nations
call to arms. Remember! (ring
bell)
The chair is empty, for they
are not here. Remember! (ring
bell)
The wine glass is inverted
— They cannot toast with us this
night. Remember! (ring bell)
The slices of lemon -Reminding us of their bitter suffering. Remember! (ring bell)
The grains of salt -Representing the countless
tears of the families. Remember!
(ring bell)
The single red rose -Reminding us of loved ones who
keep the faith awaiting their
return. Remember! (ring bell)
The burning candle and yellow ribbon — Symbolizing everlasting hope of a reunion with
the missing. Remember! (ring
bell)
Remember! — All who have
served alongside them; we who
have donned the same proud
uniform, being sworn to the
same faith and allegiance we
will never forget their sacrifice.
Remember (ring bell)
Remember Until the day
they return home, or find eternal peace, we will remember .

Vikings volleyball has no
answer for Mission Valley
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – The Lady Vikings
volleyball team dropped a pair
of games to Mission Valley last
Tuesday.
Central Heights appeared
overmatched most of the evening as Mission Valley won the
first game in two sets, 25-11 and
25-21.
The Vikings couldnt make
anything happen in the second
set either, as Mission Valley
won the next game in dominating fashion 25-13 and 25-11.
Hannah Savage and Paige
Stockard were both perfect on
serves for the evening.
Defensively,
Shelbi
Hettinger led the way with 14
digs and a serve receive number of 2.3.
A serve receive number of 3
represents a perfect night.
Riley Roll chipped in defensively with 11 digs and Lindsay
Burton was the second highest
serve receive rating (2.2) on the
night.
The top attacker against
Mission Valley was Savage
with 3 kills.

Santa Fe Trail shuts down Bulldogs in 2nd half
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – The Anderson
County Bulldogs (1-2) played
a solid first half of football in
a 36-22 loss to Santa Fe Trail
Chargers (3-0) on Friday night.
SFT got on the board first
with an 11 yard touchdown
scamper by running back Will
Herren to make the score 6-0
following a blocked extra point.
The touchdown came following a fumble by the Bulldogs
on their opening drive of the
game.
The Bulldogs had an answer
as Logan Allen picked up
where he left off last week and
scored on an 8 yard run to put
Anderson County up 7-6 after
the extra point.
The Chargers answered on a
19 yard touchdown run, again
by Herren, and with a successful 2-point conversion they held
a 14-7 lead.
In what was the turning
point of the game, the Bulldogs
faced a 4th and goal situation
late in the second half. SFT
came up with a huge defensive
stand and stopped the Bulldogs
at the 2 yard line to get the
ball back and keep Anderson
County off the scoreboard.
The Chargers offense rode
the momentum picked up by
the big stop and promptly
marched 98 yards in just over 4
minutes to take a 22-7 lead with
less than a minute left in the
6×10.5
ach
half.
Instead of taking a knee, it
was apparent that Bulldogs
head coach Greg Welch felt he
needed to give his boys a chance
to put some points up before
intermission. Gavin Wolken
connected with Tanner Spencer
for a 60 yard touchdown pass in
the waning seconds to cut the
lead to 22-14 at halftime.
The third quarter belonged to
the Chargers. Following a Santa
Fe Trail 5 yard touchdown run,
the defense came up with an
interception on the Bulldogs
ensuing possession.
Early on in the 4th quarter, the Chargers pinned the
Bulldogs down at their 2 yard
line following a Santa Fe Trail
punt.
Trailing 30-14 and facing a
4th down inside own 10 yard
line, the Bulldogs decided their
best chance at winning was to
roll the dice and try to convert
for a first down.
The Chargers defense stuffed
the Bulldogs and promptly
turned the short field into a
touchdown to go up 36-14.
Allen tacked on a 21 yard
touchdown run with 3 minutes
left, but it wasnt nearly enough
to pose a serious threat. Once
again he was the workhorse of
the night with 36 carries for 172
yards and 2 touchdowns.
Defensively Tanner Spencer
and Dalton Duke led the way
with 9 and 7 tackles respectively.

Theater Production of Love, loss and what I wore Thursday
night ACJSHS Auditorium. The opening night presentation
was a fund raiser for the local WINGS chapter.
TOPEKA (September 14, 2017) The State
of Kansas will ask the U.S. Supreme Court to
review three recent Kansas Supreme Court
decisions that in some situations prohibit Kansas from prosecuting undocumented
aliens for identity theft, Kansas Attorney
General Derek Schmidt said today.
We are not convinced the Kansas courts
application of the federal immigration statute is correct, so we are requesting review of
all three cases by the U.S. Supreme Court,
Schmidt said. The Kansas court reasoned
that the state cannot prosecute a defendant for falsifying state or private legal
documents if the defendant also put the
same false information on federal forms for
employment verification. I doubt Congress
intended that peculiar result.
On September 8, the Kansas Supreme
Court overturned the convictions of three
individuals for crimes including identity
theft and making false information on state
tax forms or private legal documents.
KSC picks vendor for new system
TOPEKA The Kansas

form the way the state court
system serves the people of
Kansas.
The court selected the
Odyssey Case Manager developed by Tyler Technologies of
Plano, Texas. The changeover
should take 3-4 years.

Kansas gas prices
see decline after storms
TOPEKA, Kan. Sept. 18, 2017
Kansas is among the majority
of states across America with
declining gas prices this week,
as the nations gasoline supply
and distribution continues to
recover after hurricanes Irma
and Harvey. Kansas average
price at the pump dropped five
cents this week to an average
of $2.40 a gallon, the sixth lowest state average in the country, reports AAA Kansas. (See
attached infographic.) This
weeks five-cent drop follows
last weeks four-cent gas price
decline. The states average
per-gallon price is 22 cents less
than the national average.
This weeks Kansas cities with the states gas price
extremes are:
HIGH: Glen Elder (Mitchell
County) $2.70
LOW: Waverly (Coffey County)
– $2.21
`According to AAA Kansas,
Wichita, with a $2.31/gallon
pump prices ranks as the 12th
lowest metro area in the nation.
Of the 10 Kansas cities regularly highlighted by AAA Kansas
(see chart below), all of their
gas prices fell in the past week,
except Emporia ($2.48), which
saw a two-cent increase. Salina
(-12 cents), Lawrence (-10) and
Wichita (-8) led the way with
the largest price declines.
National Perspective
As South and Southeast states
recover from Hurricanes
Harvey and Irma, motorists in
45 U.S. states are paying less
for a gallon of gas on the week.
At $2.62, todays national gas
price average is the cheapest in
14 days and five cents less than
last week.
Gas prices are dropping as
the situation with refineries,
pipelines and gasoline deliveries is positively progressing,
said Jennifer Haugh, AAA
Kansas spokesperson. It looks
like pump prices will continue
on this declining trend into the
coming weeks as the regions
affected by Irma and Harvey
resume normal operations.
Midwest motorists are benefiting the most with a few states
– Indiana, Michigan and Ohio
seeing gas prices plummet
by the double-digits inside of
seven days. Meanwhile, some
states in the West Coast and
Rockies are seeing gas prices
increase.
As gas prices drop for the
majority of the country, so does
the nations gasoline inventory.
The latest Energy Information
Administration (EIA) report
identifies the latest draw of 8.4
million bbl as the highest on
record, much of which can be
attributed to motorist fueling
up in the droves in anticipation
of Hurricane Irma.
Next weeks EIA report
may bring another record-demand level as a continued
result of Irma, but demand is
expected to sharply decline
across the country by the end
of September, added AAA
Kansas Haugh.
Florida Gas Supply & Gulf
Coast Refineries
Last week, at $2.73, Floridas
saw its highest gas prices since
December 2014. The spike came
as many gas stations faced outages as power was down and
roads impassable. The good
news is that in the last seven
days, the states average has
shaved off one cent. In addition, ports are open and receiving steady streams of tanker
shipments as state officials
continue to work with gasoline
trucker and shippers to ensure
timely delivery of product to
retail stations. Reports indicate
that the gas station gasoline
outage situation is improving
as stations receive deliveries.
Similarly, positive progress
is being seen in the Gulf Coast.
According to the Department
of Energy, a total of six Gulf
Coast refineries are operating
at reduced rates, which is one
more refinery than last week.
These six facilities make-up 13
percent of refining capacity in
the U.S. Five refineries continue to operate at reduced rates
and three remain shut down,
which represents a total of 10
percent of U.S. refining capacity.

Lindsey grew
up in rural
Kansas playing outside,
painting,
drawing,
and
playing sports.
She studied
Illustration
at
the
University of
Kansas and
is currently living in
Lawrence, KS
with her husband,
son, and cat.
Lindsey finds inspiration in
nature, animals, books, people,
and traveling. Her illustrations
are made with a variety of
materials. She loves the mouthwatering juiciness of oil paint,
the independence of watercolor, the history of found paper,
the simplicity of pencil and
pen, and all the rabbit holes
that are revealed by carving
linoleum block to create pattern and repetition. Making
childrens books is Lindseys
way of combining all of her
loves.
Lindsey will be presenting
on her illustration process
for her two childrens books
Bluebird and Sun and Moon.
She
will
take
you
through the
early stages
of thumbnail sketches, to the
final illustrations,
and all the
fun
that
happens in
between.
She
uses
lots
of
different
materials
and likes to
give a little
inside scoop
Lindsey Yankey to how she
uses them
and what her studio space consists of.
She will also be presenting
to the student at GES and the
Junior Senior High School on
Friday, Oct. 20th.
A complete schedule of
authors and activities will be
available at the library soon!

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, September 19, 2017
Uncovering more A minimum wage increase to $5.15 takes effect – 20 years ago
Garnett history
I recently found another bit
of Garnett history while operating my metal detector.
It is a solid bronze water
meter cap, in nearly perfect
condition with the exception
of the rusted and broken hinge
pin.
The
Pittsburg
Meter
Company introduced the
Keystone Meter in 1901, and
the Pittsburg Equitable Meter
Company was still producing
meters in the late 1930s.
This water meter cap could
very well be over 100
years old.
It reads as follows:

The county prosecutors
faith in apparently reluctant witnesses ended up in a
reduced plea deal last week
for a man who shot his former
girlfriend in the face with a
shotgun last December. Greg
Warner, 56 of Welda, pled
guilty to a single count of
aggravated battery with a
deadly weapon in the incident
which occurred December 15
when he fired a shotgun at 43
year-old Lena Hopkins as she
and three of her friends were
retrieving some of her property from Warners residence
north of Welda. Warner had
faced four counts of attempted second-degree murder
charged in connection with
the incident.
20 years ago…
Beginning
September
1, 1997, the federal minimum wage will be raised
from $4.75 an hour to $5.15
an hour. According to the

What would happen if a
toxic chemical accident
occurred in Anderson County?
At the first meeting of the
Anderson County Emergency
Viking cross country team heads to Prairie Paws
Animal Shelter to run and interact with dogs
Planning Committee, committee members began the
process of answering that
question. A new federal and
state law requires county governing authorities to
appoint members of the local
community to serve on the
committee. The committees
duty includes formulating an
emergency plan for response
to incidents involving toxic
chemicals, training for emergency responders, forming an
inventory of existing hazardous chemicals in the county,
and informing the public on
the activities of the committee.

Police Chief Lawrence
Kellerman reports that many
students holding restricted
drivers licenses are violating
the law by driving around the
city before and after school
and during the noon hour.
He said that in the past two
weeks Garnett police have
stopped for traffic violations
six or seven students with
restricted licenses. As many
as 40 students may be violating the law concerning
the use of restricted licenses, Chief Kellerman said. The
law states that students under
16 who have restricted licenses may drive by the most
direct route to and from jobs
and to and from school.
100 years ago…
A fire at Colony destroyed
one of the best buildings in
the town. The building consisted of three rooms. The
fire occurred Sunday night.
The building that burned contained the Maxwell Hardware
Store and the Electrical Light
Plant. Nothing was saved in
the Electrical Light Plant,
but most of the hardware
stock was able to be saved.
The building was valued at
$7,500 and about one-third of
the building was covered by
insurance.
